Many strange and, for Idaho, just enough fortunate things happened in a 34-29 win against Cal Poly with a degree of difficulty that was off the charts. But the Vandals’ season may have been saved in the third quarter.

One week after UC Davis blew out Cal Poly on the road, the Mustangs took a 14-6 lead into halftime against No.13/14-ranked Idaho. But the momentary advantage didn’t last long, as the Mustangs gave up the advantage under a barrage of Idaho scoring and fell 34-29.

The Idaho Vandals (4-3) meet a conference opponent when they visit the Cal Poly Mustangs (2-4) on Saturday, October 19, 2024 at the P1FCU Kibbie Dome in a Big Sky battle. The Vandals' game against the Mustangs will be available on ESPN+.
